Her stunning figure once impressed audiences while she performed sexy dance routines as a member of the Pussycat Dolls and it seems The X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger isn't shying away from putting her toned body on display just yet.

The singer donned a revealing outfit on the show on Saturday which left little to the imagination.

And it appears Nicole's clothing was a bit too much to handle for Gary Barlow who looked in the opposite direction when she took to her feet to show off her costume.

The star went for the shock factor in a lacy catsuit and crimped hair with a black headpiece, but told Dermot: 'I just wanted to wear something really simple tonight!'

Nicole wore a figure-hugging, black lace catsuit and her skin was clearly visible through the thin material.

The item featured a touch of glamour as sparkling silver sequins were sprinkled across the suit.

The singer painted her lips with bright red lipstick and her eyes were decorated with deep black mascara and eyeliner.

Meanwhile, her fellow female judge Tulisa opted for all-out glamour in a full-length black gown, finishing off her ensemble by giving it a Halloween touch with a pair of vampire fangs.

Nicole is no stranger to dressing up – the US star dressed in a red and black PVC outfit and showed off her cleavage at contestand Rylan Clark's 24th birthday on Wednesday.

And she surprised Rylan by telling him she wasn't able to attend but showed up and sung Happy Birthday to the aspiring pop star.

And Nicole wasn't the only celebrity to send Rylan their best wishes for his birthday – his number one fan Robbie Williams, who tweeted his support for the entertainer during last week's show, offered his advice during a masterclass ahead of the live performance this weekend.

On the day, Rylan tweeted: 'Such an amazing birthday present @robbiewilliams thank you for everything you said. See you again Sunday x'
